Encouraged

I read Rach's blog and i was so encouraged by her words. haha, yes.. i encouraged her as she's going thru something difficult. However, seeing her picking herself up once again encouraged me too! This helps me to be more willing to lend a listening ear, to be more loving to people. Everyone will go through a time of difficulty. If we dont grow and come out of it, we're then the failure. No one is born to be a failure or loser. Let's not lose and bow down to the difficulties but emerge and when we grow, we can help others in future!

I am not some very holy religious person. What i did was to just remind my good friend of what we've all learnt but she may have overlooked. I remembered someone(Pst or Eric) preached a message on putting the Word into flesh. Indeed, i want to be the living testimony. There are people who call themselves living dictionary and blah blah.. my wish is to be a living bible! I haven't attain the level of being able to memorize word by word, there's still so much to learn. Reading the Bible is one thing, but living out what you've read is another thing, and definitely much more difficult. Just like the SOTM, easy to read, understanding it literally may be easy, but doing and living it takes our lifetime to fulfil.

As i was walking to work today, i thought of what wishes i wanna make for my birthday this year. There were so many that i wanna wish for. Most importantly, my WHOLE household receive salvation and acknowledge Christ. My greatest wish ever. And together we can all serve God together. My loved ones have a healthy body! Loved ones includes my family, friends, UM, CG, church and everyone whom i know!

So many more and more and more.. I am greedy, i make alot of wishes. hehe. sometimes, the material stuff are not that important. There are so many people exchanging their precious for material possesions. I wanna exchange my precious for the One above. And i know i'm blessed!
